I leave the rescue knife in the car but I always wear it when I'm driving because I don't believe I could get to it if it's in the dash in the event of a crash. When I go diving or to the beach I use a diving knife. When I got shooting I take a Beretta gun tool knife and a skinning knife. When I was bodyguarding, I would carry quite a few back up knives and two firearms, on the basis if you can't get to one you can get to another. The vast majority of my knives are practical tools.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13513427574890997942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790828673028650597.post-78025187441420719922010-08-07T16:30:11.981-07:002010-08-07T16:30:11.981-07:00Right you are about training TGR.

I've had both training regarding defensive tactics by a knife wielding suspect as well as two knife fighting classes run by ex-special forces guys who did lots of street time as officers. That's been awhile back. I need to attend another training class soon.<br /><br />I'll check out the knife store on Hammerly next weekend.THE FISHING MUSICIANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06370096226036500054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4790828673028650597.post-13393556846413466842010-08-07T16:10:00.869-07:002010-08-07T16:10:00.869-07:00As a patrol officer, I could not decide.

Each as a purpose and a specific job fuction. <br /><br />I also had a Buck 110 back in the 80's. I think I even wore it on my belt in high school. How times have changed. <br /><br />There is a knife store on Hammerly and Sam Houston Tollway. I don't remember the name but Det. Ninja drags me in there from time to time. Talk about a toy store. Det. Ninja also goes kenpo and a part of that is knife fighting. <br /><br />I have been to two knife training classes and I believe if you are to carry, you need training, then it is practice and practice.Texas Ghostriderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16431137008658324890noreply@blogger.com
